Recipes Main Dishes Pork Pulled Pork Slow Cooker Root Beer Pulled Pork 4.3 (54) 38 Reviews 9 Photos This simple root beer pulled pork recipe is a big hit with my family of picky eaters. For a spicy kick, mix 1 part Frank's RedHot Buffalo sauce and 1 part of your favorite mustard-based BBQ sauce. You can use a pork loin instead of pork shoulder, if desired. Combine with your favorite BBQ sauce and enjoy.
